hello hello!

Hello Lizbot

Greetings, Lizbot! 🤖

Hey Lizbot! The no jacket day was cool foolery.

i got to wear my coolest leather jacket today

Hey Brian D - Happy False Spring!

but what did puxatawny say 2 weeks ago ?

it's made for 50-60 degree weather

Hey Roffle! Indeed!

The Rite of [False] Spring

🌈👋

for some reason i have a very specific memory of lizbot playing the clientele on one of the first warm days of the year, several years ago, before i started on WPRB

Hey Dana! I am envious! All my currently available clothing is either too warm or too summery. I just layered summer clothes and topped that with a trusty hoodie

Hello, Lizbot!

Hey Mark! I do not know, but man, my mom really tried to convince me that groundhog's word held sway when I was a little kid, so I was always disappointed when more winter happened and Phil lied to us!

Hello Christine!

Hey Danosaur!

Never trust a groundhog

Or anything that lives in a hole in the ground!

I'm gonna revisit albums I bought and listened to heavily from '96-'99 in this first few songs because I'm in a weird mood and felt like revisiting that time

Except Hobbits!

@Dana - No wonder we're all talking picnics today with this tantalizing spring weather!

this is a great one a little more info on Sean O’Neal please

the green pajamas - a twee/indie thing I hadn't thought about in a long time, but this album used to live in my stereo 23 years ago

Wasn't Sean a WPRB DJ for a minute in the early 2000s or late 90s?

@Danosaur - Srsly. Smarmy smug little deceptive loaves, they are! But I like watching them pop up outta all their little hidey-holes along Kelly Drive in the springtime! It's like whac-a-mole sans violence

And WHAT revisit to late 90s albums in my personal heavy rotation would be complete without LILYS?

I met Sean and Erin at TAGFest in the late 90's, Wilbo, too.

Hey Dan Ruccia! Yeah, I vaguely remember that. He also used to host a live DJ night at Old City bar La Tazza with my then-neighbor Karen Jagelle, who randomly was the manager of Rob Mazurek's music, which led to Rob Mazurek with Black Goat Ensemble coming from Chicago to sod a live set on Doubleplusgood..which I believe you engineered! It all comes full circle

soft boyyyyz

Hey Andy! Oh wow, TAGfest! Another era!

Robyn alert!

@Brian D. - Send up the Robyn signal! Cue fake sitar

still always impressed by how perfect underwater moonlight is

truth!

Aye

Hiya Lizbot!

I did the Assunpink Park sound for the evening performers, including Virgil Moorfield.

@Andy - I loved Erin's voice on Flowchart's New Radiolab Ripoff (lil stereolab joke there since Sean was annoyed reviewers often said he was ripping off Stereolab!)

Hey DSM!

@Dana K - Truth. One of the all-time bests!

@Dan R - And that Rob Mazurek recording lives on some dusty DAT in PRB studios to this day!

Wow, when Hammond B3's roamed the earth at will.

Hell yeah. Rare Bird 👍

Love their track Lonely Street

@Mark - Flowchat was Sean's group. Sometimes Erin Anderson sang on tracks. I think the first time I saw him perform was at a PACMAN (Philadelphia Ambient Collective - Music and Noise) event put together by Aharon Varady...Or a Gate to Moonbase Alpha a the Rotunda - Free show, Free vegan buffet (haha, chef Jeff)! What's not to love about that?

Hello Bobby!

don't know this band but this song is great. reminds me of my favorite love (the band) songs...

@Roffle - haha, pretty great use of hammond B3 here!

just saw the PRB tweet lizbot did u take photo ?https://twitter.com/wprb

@Lixbot - Totally, just enough and tasty.

I went to several GTMBA shows when it first started up. I've been to Burning Man with Quentini

@Dana K - Was just listening to Love yesterday! When the weather warms up is when I tend to break out Forever Changes

@Andy - The Great Quentini, with all this contraptions and costumes, and The Red Masque I probably saw at Gate more than any other bands

Does Aharon still go by "Spaceling". He used to run a mailing list for Philly area performances, etc. He showed me the actual machine, a bare bones Unix box.

@Mark - haha, no! I hadn't seen that photo, but I do like possums! Makes me wanna play Possum Emergency station ID!

false ending

Quentini has done some amazing art at Burning Man as well as the Regional events, look up "Zark Industries"

haha play that ID if possible:)

I have driven past Burning Man and the roads are lined with cops for fifty miles in every direction.

They have speed traps set up for even 1mph over the limit on tribal lands, oy!

@Andy - I haven't seen Aharon in years! I remember hanging out on that PACMAN online board in the very early 2000s. Jack Monaghan from Tremolo, and whatshisface (used to play sitar) were on there a lot!

Cheer-Ax! Hooray!

Hey Bud!

New Cheer-Accident album drops TOMORROW, BTW!

@Mark - I'll see what I can do!

I vaguely remember Jack. Also DJ Roper, Seth and the whole Astrocade crew.

Yeah, I’m sure I’ll need to get that one too

wonderful psych-y show this evening 😍

@Andy - Yes! And there was that sort of proto-streaming ambient music channel linked to PACMAN!

@Dana - Thanks!

@Andy - Yes! The tribal cops were out the most. Especially down by Pyramid Lake.

This is magnificent! Cheer channeling the Who and Nazz.

Ed Yang, Motoko Shimizu and Gene Lew, lot's of memories...

Is it me, or does that drummer sound like Keith Moon?

if i can make a request: "loan your loneliness" by gruff rhys, or anything by him or SFA

Sing like Keith Moon? lol, "Don't Worry Baby"

jimbeaux, i also got the nazz vibe

Moon in a nun habit being chased by Ringo in 200 Motels, so wrong.

This is one of the few bands that can convincingly jump between avant-prog and jangly pop

thanks for that ID :) !

200 Motels! lol Masterpiece if ever there was one. :)

There ya go, Mark!

R O K Y !

@Michael Y - Hi! Hmmm, I can see that. most Cheer-Accident drummer is done by the band's founder and only consistent member (other than Jeff Liebsher) Thymme Jones!

Yay Roky! He's not just for Halloween anymore! And thank you for not saying Rokey ha

Hey JImbeaux! I imagine you were out enjoying Proto-Spring today!

Proto spring was much needed today, even if we go back to winter, I am re-charged

@Brian D - haha, one time I slipped up and said ROKEY and a caller called and was angry! That was like 18 years ago and I still remember!

Proto-Spring! lmao Test tube weather, brought to you by every oil company ever.

like the use of “word” choogle !

@Andy - Now I'm blanking on the guy who played sitar in that PACMAN/GTMBA late 90s/early 2000s scene...Ben...? Morris?

Roffle, I ran thru a gasoline sprinkler today. I love Proto spring lol

@mark- sometimes you just gotta choogle

@Roffle - Basically. I'm enjoying it but feeling weird!

Proto-spring was good...windy bike commute then moving lumber all afternoon. Ready for bedddd....

when u look up use of choogle it uses a review of a roky concert

@jimbeaux - Time to don a light and colorful homemade sweater now that the temps are dipping again!

@Mark - oooh, perfect! See, there was some hidden logic in my choice!

Rudie, what's up??!!

I also check my brain cells at the door to bathe in the sun or pleasant wind. It's our nature. Hoping for the best is still on the obtainable.

@Dana - Next track I'm gonna play reminds me of you!

@Bud - For real. Only Cheer-Accident can pull that off consistently! I like both their pop and their prog equally

@lizbot: the lattice of coincidence- sometimes you think of a plate of shrimp and …

Heyyyyyyy

Hello everyone

@mark - it's shrimps all the way to the sky

I had started cooking dinner but I had to come back for my BICYCLES

Hello Addie!! How's the kid!?

Hey Rob! How're the birds?!

@Dana - haha, I KNEW this would pull you back in!

Hi Lizbot. Birds aren't real doncha know

I don’t mind being predictable!

Desperate Bicycles sing-along!

Lets get red dial! Or is that just on my side?

But I did see and hear an adult Red-shouldered Hawk in the nearby park on my morning walk. There is a pair nesting nearby

@Rob - So I've heard. They charge on wires. Explains why my pet birds know all my secrets - storing and transmitting them day and night

@Dana - haha, yeah, well I can't play Desperate Bicycles without thinking of you!

When I was much younger I had Smokescreen on a mix CD followed immediately by “Fish Fry” by Big Black. So I kind of always expect to hear that next. (This is probably better though)

@Lizbot, yup! Your "conure" is a small mobile intelligent unit, always fully charged

Hey Lizbot! The kid is great! Sitting here with me right now enjoying the show while we wait for dinner. She says she’s gonna draw you some more art.

@Addie - Lizart? Reptilian art? :)

Finger paints on your snake would sell. Just sayin'

@roffle last time was a dragon with lots of speakers on it.

@Rob - See, he IS intelligent. That's what aviculture websites REALLY mean when they say conures are smart...smart like my iPhone. Spying on me and reporting to those who will listen how many cuttlebones and sprigs of millet I buy on a monthly basis. This will somehow be used in my downfall eventually

Omg snake slither paints would be sooooo cool

@Dana K - Ah, yes, the beloved mix burning its track order into one's brain. More than familiar with that phenomenon!

@Addie - you could so do it. lol

@roffle she was just talking about letting the snake crawl across her iPad drawing app.

@Addie - Oh my god, I love her! Tell her THANK YOU! She is the best!

@Addie - Now that cool too! Awesome!

Great minds eh? :)

@Addie / Roffle - iPads are merely warming pads for our cold-blooded friends

So true Lizbot! Cats are quick learners on that front as well. Little buggers!

@Mark - To answer yr question from way earlier in the chat - Sean O'Neal was a Philly DJ and electronic musician/producer whose band Flowchart began in the mid-90s and went through the early 2000s. Sean passed away in 2020. I played a little flowchart retrospective that week

Wow! You don't hear many songs about burning witches.

Ingmar Bergman's triumphal film imho.

@Danosaur - true! Also, the ending of the Seventh Seal film is one of my favorite endings to any movie ever

@ROffle - Truth!

I looooove this song. It’s making chopping peppers much more dramatic

@Dana K - Excellent. The peppers will meet their death tonight.

Pepper choppin' tune! :)

here's more contemplative springtime pepper-choppin' music

Is that an oboe?

There was a tiny green pepper baby growing inside my red pepper.

Piccolo's are so under represented!

thanks ! i kinda remember you playing him in the past

@Dana K - I love chomping those tender baby peppers! Even better than baby celery (the ONLY good celery, imho)

These music sounds like it's part of a movie montage.

Dana K - Those are little gems!

@Danosaur - Astor Piazzolla def creates that atmosphere!

@mark - no problem! yeah, check out more flowchart when you can

I like to listen to music that makes me feel like I'm in a cartoon or a movie. It's really fun when you're driving.

@Danosaur - Yes! Probably one of the many reasons I love Piazzolla...along with the DRAMA of this music. Saw a great Piazzolla concert in a church in NW philly once

@danosaur regarding burning witches ever see the radiohead burn the witch video ? animated version of wicker man

Carl Stalling or the band, CHAI are good for that cartoon feel.

I haven't, Mark. Sounds intense.

it’s really good referred you as creepiest bob thr builder episode ever

This band Tadzio from Philly features a singer I just saw live in a church in fishtown last week - Shaina Kapeluck. Channeling those Sandy Denny vibes

Astor! Beautiful!

@Mark - Ooh, I gotta see that for Wicker Man content

@Mark - Still haven't shown the kid Wicker Man even though she loves folk horror cuz she'll be freaked out by the innkeeper's daughter part! ha

@lizbot you haven’t seen ha you’ll really like their loose interpretation!

britt eklund is great as as willow & willows song is fantastic music

@Danosaur - These days the daughter of Allison Anders (one of my fav directors), Tiffany, has been selecting songs for soundtracks for loads of TV and movies. Jealous!

I reeeeaallly like this track

@Addie - Glad you're digging it! The Tadzio or this current track, Saint Abdullah?

R Roffle...6:16 PM Back in the day me and a friend used to cast and sound track for LOTR as a fun game long before Peter Jackson did it.

I meant the Tadzio. But this one is lovely as well!

@Addie - Shaina is great live too! First show I went to indoors since pandemic began because the booker, Fire Museum Presents, keeps everyone distanced and audience size small!

I’m due to see Kishi Bashi next month. Was supposed to see them in March 2020! This is finally the make up show.

So that’ll be my first post (ish) pandemic show

@Addie - I asked for refunds for a lot of shows after multiple reschedulings, many of which were no longer conducive to my schedule. I happened to buy tickets to a buncha shows shortly before the pandemic! - Lilys reunion show, Bikini Kill, TMBG, King Crimson, The Residents doing all of God In Three Persons, Bang On a Can LongPlay festival in Brooklyn...there are more, those are just the ones that come to mind!

Oh man, so many missed shows!

Hey Liz, it’s that time of year again! I’m Fed Ex ing a double filet o fish, and Shamrock shake to you. Enjoy!

God, my favorite! U da best.

Oh Dave Thomas you absolute marble-mouth. Good thing this album is too great to matter that these lyrics are indecipherable

Hi Dan C!

UBU !

liking the descriptions of the lizbot set break activities can’t wait until the next one :)

Dub Housing?..

@Brian D - Indeed! Did I ever tell you that my mother-in-law was buds with this band? My husband has some old postcard exchanges between his mom and Dave Thomas from 40 years ago! Saw that when we were first dating and was impressed

Oh yea first album. I love Oh Cathrine from tenement year.

@Dan C - Ooooh, I hope that shake holds up! I hear it's made of indestructible seaweed extracts!

Dungen!

@Dan C - Thanks!

Yay Dungen!!

I bet Dave Thomas was in HS choir. Can you imagine?

Hey Pethie!

Fed Ex first gives it a blast of alpha waves, lid off.

Hola Lizbot!

@Peth - I love your dress pattern updates! What did you wear for False Spring today?

@Dan C - Excellent . Be sure to alter its DNA first! As long as its green like the bagels and beer!

I had no idea it would be so mild so I had on a very Autumnal paisley in a heavy blend…phooey!

Liz, others, check out deep focus lens on YouTube, a brilliant woman doing film criticism. She’s terrific, just happened on her.

@Elspeth - Aw, dang! You will surely get many other opportunities to express springtime optimism through fabric patterns with the upcoming False Spring, Part II: The ReThaw-ening, Proto-Spring Part 12, and Real Spring

I’ll be ready for all of it!

Eeeeeee!

Ahoy!

Plumsssss

This guitar is hoodoo rhythm ace extraordinaire

that's DOON-yen or close to it. I think it means orchard or grove in Swedish

Ok, I had one shot of Wild Turkey. Guilty

@Addie - How was your drive back to VT? Still snow on the ground there I assume! Did you catch any of our unseasonably warm weather here? It's such a mixed bag every day, I don't remember what it was like last weekend, but I know I stood outside of that Shaina Kapeluck show talking last Saturday night and was not cold

@lizbot the drive was fine! It was about 60 when I left Philly, and 17 when I got home!

Always some good synth sounds from BMSR

I’m pretending it’s Friday, so sue me.

Two best new songs played ❤🧡💛💚💙💜💖 Spaceface and Black Moth!

Cheers Dan, I’ve got my strong vt beer for this listening session.

Brian D, after weeks and weeks I can’t ignore this. Who they say you look it. From that tiny pic. Ready? Everybody looks like somebody after all.

This song is gonna make everyone go get dinner started, isn't it?

Hey Ossy!

Got some bourbon lined up post dinner. No shots. Glass of straight up or maybe....a Manhattan!

@Ossy - haha, That Black Moth Super Rainbow track is kinda video game soundtracky too!

@Addie - oh yikes! But it's going back down to the teens here again soon I believe. The flowers and birds are so confused!

Dan my pic accidentally looks like Frank Zappa lp cover for You Are What You Is . Happy accident

I think you’ll be amused. Hope so.

@lizbot I am also confused! It’s 50ish here today and tomorrow ice storm.

Ron Jeremy

A song about eating your feelings, I can relate!

@Danosaur same!

love this!

It has a goldfish choir

Hello Li Maria! - Glad you're enjoying it!

No Ron has me beat on body and facial hair. Nothing like him. But ya tiny pics are deceivng

This too! Good evening, Lizbot

Ok, now we can move on. Thanks

@Danosaur - ha, as Bjork & Einar said in The Sugarcubes, may as well just eat the menu!

It’s the impish grin!

Lingonberry pancake, big Lebowski.

When you open the box of a filet o fish looks like chimps threw it together.

It’s askew

@Addie - ack. Yeah, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't enjoying this warmer weather, but the wildly vacillating temps are giving me whiplash!

Yeah Liz, Black moth rainbow also a 70s colorful vibe!

Wait until you see what’s coming your way from here? Horizontal blowing ice.

@Brian D - DOON-yen...noted. I know this and yet always revert to a Funyun pronunciation for those Swedes! Saw them at First Unitarian church on that first tour. Good show!

@OSsy - Definitely! Love it

@dan you know what singer orders the lingonberry pancakes in that scene ?

Aw yisss, always a good playlist that includes tune-yards

Oh....I should, ah...er, Aimee Mann?

@Dan C - mmm, askew foods...

hahaha great scene !

“I can get ya a toe...”

@Dan C - In that case I'll have to put together a horizontal blowing ice - themed show!

by 3 o’clock w nail polish :)

Flea

I just drove by jack knifed amazon semi, it’s trailers ass end blocking the whole right lane. I kid you not.

@Addie - yes! I am a sucker for those sweet sweet tones at the beginning of that track

“My buddies, face down in the muck...”

this last set was great - nice work lizbot

I'm digging all these Spanish-language songs

Hi Space Cowboy! Thanks!

Silky fuzz

Todo tabien chev o let

Hello George!

@Dan Cochrane, yikes! Roughly where is this accident?

and now for some brazilian Portuguese

I-70, 50 miles north east of St. Louis.

@dan i think there’s a few chatters who could spin those lines herealll day long :)

@GEorge - Better than fuzzy silk? Or fizzy ilk? Or a silky mink?

Mos’ def

“Pilatar?”

Little Larry’s Mom

@Rob - So many great ones to choose from!

Mutamtes!

@Peth - If you're still here, I hope to see you and the kiddo at future possible gathering of the prb-alos

How many albums did Luaka Bop put out?

little Larry sellers ?

@BRian D - Ever see that excellent Tropicalia doc? The station screened it at the Princeton Public Library years ago

Of course!

Branded!

haha do I see what happens when u meet a stranger in the alps ?!

Wow, heard Clifford's friends, T-Bone💛 and Cleo💜

*you

Thanks, dan

@Lizbot, heck yeah

Holy cow, I saw so many gulls flocking, I wondered if they’d cook up nice. Anthony Bourdain would have encouraged me. May he Rest In Peace. Cuttlebone sounds sexual.

I think gulls eat too much fish & trash to be tasty

What?!? Ever heard of catfish. Pigs of the fresh water.

Briam, birds that eat fish aren't tasty, I've read. Fish obviously are another matter

Buttermilk wash, Andy’s fish breading.

Great Show Liz!!

lizbot can we ask george about the dave thomas post cards to his mom u mentioned ?

How about birds who eat men without hats? One hit wonder, with most annoying, hilariously bad official video, Dwarf playing mandolin.

I’m here in between cooking—I do hope we get to meet up again someday!!!

The Crew at Absolute Auto Solutions Loves rocking WPRB all day everyday

@dan, I was wrong, some fish-eating birds do taste good, according to this 1919 article from an ornithological journal: https://sora.unm.edu/sites/default/files/journals/auk/v036n01/p0100-p0101.pdf

This'll speed up all your collective cooking efforts

Oh Jesus! My baby!

@dan u dance if u want to. only spinal tap got to use little people

Turned up to 11

Brian ENO production!

@Dan C - ha, same over here! I had a headache earlier and took excedrin and the caffeine has kicked IN

Eno has his hands in so many of my favorite bands

Mark Mothersbaugh is a helluva visual artist, fine art. Gallery in Chicago, Aaron Packer. Met him at opening.

1978....good year!

pere Ubu & devo u got late 70s Ohio covered Mothersbaugh great w soundtracks too

Liz have you heard BE compilation No New York?!? Great!

Nice segue GIRL!

❤️this song❤️

@Dan C - Love him and his oddball Booji Boy videos! I had an early DEVO VHS as a kid that my prompted my parents to distainfully ask what exactly in the hell I was watching!

@Pethie - Yes! Great album!

Eno and Todd, between em a zillion productions.

Thanks, Dan!

@Dan C - I got No New York on vinyl in my collection. Also a well-worn copy lives in the music library at the station

Devo, capt. beefheart, replacements my faves from SNL

XTC?

Steve lilywhite, Skylarking

DEVO and Bowie doing Man Who Sold the World with Joey Arias and Klaus Nomi near the top of my fav SNL performances

Absolutely, and Boys Keep Swinging 2nd song with puppets.

I love Lodger, look back in anger.

sex pistols would’ve been an all timer snl but weren’t allowed US visas elvis costello replaced them

@Mark - Srsly! I remember reading a Dave Thomas interview where he grumbles about driving from his through PA to east coast show, hence the album "Pennsylvania"

Speaking of Elvis, do you know what song beat out his collaboration for Oscar?

Acoustic rhythm guitars!

pere ubu just did uk show this week he has a new interpretation of Canterbury Tales

in article he described it as medieval version of on the road

I finally read Canterbury tales, so infectious to read that style. Loved it! Same summer as Moby Dick. Got around to both.

@Mark - I'm fine with seeing Elvis Costello instead

He cut Alison to play radio radio, giving Lorne Michaels the finger musically.

@Dan C - Plus Lodger featured a ++good favorite, Adrian Belew!

thomas is quite the character amazing he’s still kicking

I prefer his #1 Carlos Almomar!

@Mark - Oh wow, huh. Last time I saw Pere Ubu Dave was looking beat! He sat on the stage for most of the Johnny Brenda's show

ANOTHER Ohio band here. Akron

yeah elvis got banned after breaking format michaels banned him

I heard he sat the entire show

Big Adrian Belew fan! Got to meet him and he is is very, very nice person!

I hate Lorne Michaels. SNL has been talk show filler guests for decades. Like that show needs a plug.

Reminds me of the time my husband and his friend went to High Zero fest in Baltimore nearly 20 years ago on an utterly gorgeous September day and a guy shuffled up to them and warned "watch out...there's RETSSSS here!"

I got MY WPRB swag in the mail today 😎

Suckin’ on my ding dong

@Tandrew - Excellent! Glad those are making their way to everyone!

@Tandrew - I just have the radio on 24/7. Good for sleep and wakefulness.

WPRB that is

I think yer toppin’ Yourself here Liz

Seriously, loud

Keep it UP

haha, thanks Dan. Someone was just talking about Watt, so I had to whip out double nickels

Watt's gonna be at that fest at MassMOCA with Wilco this spring

A Top 3 album for me

That's what reminded me

@Roffle - Excellent. As it should be! Same here!

That smelly Tele! LOve it!

book em, dano!

This Shiite is what George thoroghgood wanted to be.

And NOT a cover.

Fuzzzzzzzzz

@Dan C - What Makes a Man Start Fires was my first Minutemen album, and it actually was mailed to me by a WPRB DJ when I was a teen when I won a giveaway thing

Victoria shellac copy....er, sorry.

hit that one a millisecond too early! ha

Victrola

watt's playing in new hope this spring, too

More Clash! Yay!!

@Mark - Oh boy, waaaay too many artists banned from Lorne's airwaves!

Get up and move!

@Rob - It's that sorta night!

I'm glad, Lizbot!

where’s the new hope show ? J&P ?

Hi yo Lizbot! Loving these selections, thank you!

and so soon after last week's International Clash Day on KEXP in Seattle

The old JBL, L-100 Classics are fully caffeinated.

Hi Andrew Gruen - Good to know! Saw him in so many odd contexts - a spoken word show in a friend's yard with Byron Coley, Branca 100 guitar orchestra (Hallucination City) rehearsals and shows in NYC, Monclair and L.A. Watt is an animated guy to talk to!

I have Glenn branca’s Ascension

yeah snl has some permanent bans: fear, replacements elvis until he reprised the performance for 25 year anniversary show

@Rob - True! I did do a Clash Day show on WPRB years ago and Lupica came on mic to tell about the time he met Joe Strummer at FMU

Belushi was over the top with Fear

cuz I hate University Challenge!

@dan I’ll say ! He got them on a few months before he died

I dated belushi’s sister in law, James, ex, Sandy, both we’re in 2nd City.

I love this low-budget video - Just a buncha Derry street kids banging around a rec room!

@Lizbot, how lucky of Mike! Clash Day shows are the best

whoa?! must have heard the family stories about him

This can’t get any better, Eddy vedder

you know who it was who injected fatally belushi?

@Rob - haha, yup! As I recall, he kinda froze. but you gotta ask him yourself cuz I barely remember the story! Kinda like when I met Ron Mael - not the most famous of musicians I've met but the most awe-inspiring to me! I don't even know what words were coming out of my mouth as I spoke them!

I should know that, Martin mull?

@Mark - I was randomly reading about Belushi's final night earlier this year. Backup singer

Cathy Smith

No, a chick!

See!

I think she worked with Levon Helm/The Band

Cathy Smith who was Gordon light foot ex girlfriend- song Sundown is about her

@mark - yeah, she turns up in a lot of stories

Anyone see that Russian phenom skater, other worldly talent. 14 or 15.

rumor was she aborted levon helm baby she just died last year

Belushi’s sister in laws kid, now a actor, threw a basketball at my head.

He was a dead ringer for Anthony, jr. Soprano.

See the Meadow super bowl electric car ad?

was just down a julie newmar rabbit hole this week she had an la property line dispute w Jim belushi

Wasn’t she basically a one hit wonder acting wise?

@Mark - There are a couple of 15 year-old Russian skaters at Beijing that I know of. I know one's caught up in a doping scandal but I don't know what the latest is with that - I think they would have reached a verdict by now.

Funboting with Lizbot was fun. G'nite!

Alexandra Trusova is very young and skated in the nationals to Stooges' I Wanna Be your Dog, which I watched. But yeah, these skaters are getting younger and younger! Interesting controversy with where to cut off age minimum.

'Night, Roffle! Thanks for hanging!

hmmm hard to really call her one hit - she is absolutely beautiful one of the Batman cat women

One I’m thinking of broke record with 180, months before olympics, watch that routine. Every other skater uses Boulez Bolero.

That’s precisely the one hit I meant.

I keep forgetting the Olympics are happening.

Pretty easy too. Too young to be a doper. What a concept.

I can’t even imagine being under that much pressure at that age. Poor kid.

@Addie - I have barely watched, and it's a weird (but safer) vibe with no audience, but it keeps my 83 year-old dad entertained for hours, so there's that!

I put curling on to sleep

I would maybe watch some if there was a way to see it without the commercials

I absolutely hate any inane commentary watching skating poetry taking place. Sucks

Way worse than tennis commentary.

gonna have to find video of skating to the stooges never would’ve expected that :)

Lawd love a Slavic band!

It’s like having commentary watching fireworks. Please enhance it for me!?!

Stooges Bolero

hahaha portmanteau right ?

I once went to a West Philly Orchestra dance party and it was a blast. Quality Slavic band.

Sounds like the bar party in Local hero. Wonderful.

Watch out, there’s a.....what Liz? I couldn’t tell last word.

Say it ain’t so

Thanks for all the fun music and chat!

thanks lizbot another fun week ! :)

Joan does kraftwerk

I was just having a little Armatrading festival yesterday. Great show tonight @Lizbot!

Big fun, for now people

You can't say "scrotum" on the radio?

@Peth - I love her so much! Living the LIFE on the Isle of Mann with her wife! Badass to the extreme

Thanks for listening and chatting, Mark!

@Dan C - yeah, Joan does Kraftwerk and modernist chairs (album cover!)

TYSM for the show Lizbot!!

Thanks for another great show Lizbot!

@David - NOT taking my chances!

Thanks Addie!

In the meantime, I sit in my glider rocker, thinking to myself...”what wood Liz put on?”

@Dave S. - You'd be surprised!

Thank You, TAndrew!

@Dan C - WWLPO

Thanks Danosaur!

Thanks for hanging all! 'Til next Thursday!

Giggly girl

@Dan - WWLPO = ”what wood Liz put on?”

As you yourself said!

It's been almost 40 years since I first heard "The Rats Revenge, Pt. 1" on WPRB. There never was a Part 2!

@David - haha, it's time for SOMEONE out there to step up and make a Part 2! Perhaps a rat
